Ted tossed a coin several times and recorded the number of heads and tails in the following table:

Coin Experiment Side of Coin Number of Tosses

Heads 18 Tails 22


What is the experimental probability of getting heads?

A0.18
B0.22
C0.35
D0.45

Verified Answer :

Answer:

Option: D is the correct answer.

                     D.  0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

The results of the experiment are given as follows:

Coin Experiment Side of Coin Number of Tosses

                              Heads                           18

                               Tails                             22

This means that total 40 experiments were performed.

( Since 18+22=40)

Also, the number of times head turn up=18

Hence, the experimental probability of getting heads is:

Ratio of number of times head turn up to the total number of experiments performed.

Hence,

\(Probability=\dfrac{18}{40}\\\\\\Probability=0.45\)

   Hence, the experimental probability of getting head is:

                                         0.45
